I am no stranger to burn out. I was raised on the high of the hustle and the mindset that I’ll sleep when I’m dead. I get the sentiment and my work ethic is {chef’s kiss} and I’ve embodied this a little too literally. And I can’t do it anymore. I won’t.
Is it because I’m older now? Maybe.
Because I’m a mom? Maybe.
Because I finally learned this lesson and I’m too tired to fight a losing battle? Probably.
I like to give. I like to give hugs, advice, and insight knowing that somewhere along the way my perspective, my experience, my voice will make someone’s life a little better. Maybe save them some pain and hopefully give them a few belly laughs along the way.
AND there is such a thing as over-giving. Of giving and giving and saving nothing for yourself. Of giving to the point that the value starts dissipating. Which is counter productive. I also mentioned last week that I refuse to get swept away by the allure of busyness and be left being lived by life instead of living it myself.
I am a giver and I have to remember to save some for myself. Can you relate? JK. I know you can.
This week’s podcast guest is my friend Corina. A brilliant transformational astrologer and beloved collaborator. We have been talking so much about how it’s time to stop talking about taking our power back, but actually do it.
It’s time to take the things we know in our guts, and do them.
It’s time to gather and reclaim our divine wisdom.
It’s not time right this second, no. This two day gathering will happen the last weekend of October so save the date! More details to come.
And until then, listen to this week’s episode, get to know Corina, and remember to save a little bit for yourself.
As always, I’ve got your back. I’ve got your front. And I’ve got your undercarriage.
Xo, Alissa
